Several government officials looked at Bai Song dumbfounded.
Everyone was speechless.
What does the heart say?
Is this case related to this guy?
This guy Bai Song is really capable. This guy took over all the cases this month.
How come everything has something to do with this guy?
"Brothers, I'm about to report the crime." Bai Songlian said.
"This person is accusing you of having money from unknown sources in your home. What else do you want to accuse you of?"
"The grassroots people are here just for this matter."
As he spoke, Bai Song told him exactly how he met Xue He and what Xue He promised to give him as a thank you gift.
Finally, I mentioned this boy and said that he gave me a box of silver.
"The grassroots are an honest man. I have never seen so much money in my life. I heard that the money comes from military pay and is not available to ordinary people. So I brought the money to the county government office and wanted the county magistrate to see what this money can do.
Can’t accept it?”
Bai Song looked honest and courteous, took out the brocade box, and then looked at the boy.
The boy was stunned. He thought to himself, is there such a fool in the world?
Don’t even want the free money?
And you took the initiative to send it to the Yamen?
Since Bai Song took the initiative to send the money, his intention was very clear, and he asked the county magistrate to tell him whether he could accept it.
Regardless of whether the origin of the money is clean or not, the matter has nothing to do with Bai Song.
The yamen servant glanced at the boy and said, "Tell me, is what he said true?"
"No... no... I don't know this person."
"You don't know me, so why do you know that I have shady money in my family?"
"I...I..." the boy hesitated, his eyes evasive, "I heard that from somewhere else! Someone saw that you have money at home."
"Who is it? Go and find him right away." The officer shouted, grabbed the boy and walked out.
This boy obviously didn't have enough IQ. He was frightened by the officer, but he didn't expect the situation in front of him. He immediately panicked: "Yes... yes... I sent it..."
Bai Song smiled: "Brother, you gave me money and then came to the Yamen to sue me. What's the reason?"
"I...I won't sue..."
"You come to this county government office and leave whenever you want?" The government servant stopped working and stared, "Let's go! Come in with me and tell Mr. Chai clearly!"
The boy was dragged back to the county government office, and Bai Song followed him.
When they arrived at the court, Bai Song presented the silver.
After Master Chai heard what happened, he immediately knew that the boy was up to something.
Immediately asked: "What do you want to do by framing others like this?!"
After a few minutes of calming down, the boy calmed down. Not only was he no longer panicked, but he felt more confident: "Master Chai, although this matter was planned by my master, it was also secretly instructed by the governor and the Zheng family. If you are aware of current affairs,
, then punish this person! He secretly hid military pay, which is a serious matter that will lose his head. Why don't you take this person down quickly?"
"Zheng family, Zheng family again!" Bai Song frowned and looked at Mr. Chai.
The Zheng family's intention to persecute Bai Song was clearly revealed, so what happened today was no surprise.
Bai Song wanted to see how Magistrate Chai County would respond when he heard this.
I saw Magistrate Chai stroking his long beard and laughing. Suddenly he slapped the crowd and said angrily: "What a cunning man, how dare you talk nonsense in the court! How noble the governor and the Zheng family are, how can I compete with you?"
This little guy is complicit, come here! Give me a hard beating!"
The next second, the yamen servant was not polite and dragged the boy out and beat him with sticks until he was almost alive. He dragged him back and asked again: "Now, who is the instigator?"
"What I said is true, that is... that is... the governor and the Zheng family..."
"It seems that you are still unwilling to plead guilty, so give me another beating."
When the boy heard this, he was frightened out of his wits.
After a round of fighting like this, I can't even save my life.
Then he changed his mind: "It was my master who said it. He told me to do it as long as he asked me to do it. If there is a governor... No, no, no... it was my master who said that the Bai Song Dynasty killed the Xue family. Although my master has left the Xue family
I started my own family, but I thought about my old relationship and wanted to avenge Mr. Xue. So I framed him..."
"Mr. Xue is Divine Doctor Xue?"
"Exactly."
After hearing this, Magistrate Chai already understood, but his brows furrowed and he looked at the master beside him.
The master whispered in his ear: "I'm afraid if the Zheng family and the governor are really backing him, then the Zheng family will definitely kill this white boy. Sir, do you still want to protect this man?"
Chai Guan thought about it and said with a smile: "It's not difficult to protect him. Let's escort the thief to Jixian County and hand it over to the governor. Let's say that this person slandered the governor and the Zheng family in the court to jointly frame good people. In addition, he was involved in the official bank.
And hand it over to the Governor."
Master Liang smiled, extended his thumb and praised: "This is a clever move, sir. The Zheng family dare not take justice in this matter, and will definitely hand all the blame to this person. We will not overstep our bounds, and we will not offend others."
Chai Guan nodded: "That's how we deal with this matter, withdraw from the court."
Several government officials pushed the boy away.
Then Magistrate Chai County stopped Bai Song again.
There was no one in the courtroom, so Chai Guan called Bai Song to the back hall. Master Liang chased after him with a box of silver in the hall.
When he arrived at the back hall, Chai Guan sat down directly, drank tea, looked at Bai Song, and asked with a smile: "Bai Song, how are you? I have solved another problem for you. How are you? Have you thought about it? Do you want it?
Good at reading?"
It's okay not to mention reading, but when it comes to reading, Bai Song feels resentful in his heart.
In order to force himself to study, this old man actually paid attention to his own family.
Bai Song's expression was calm, but his heart was filled with anger.
Chai Guan watched his words carefully and knew what he was thinking, so he smiled and said: "I know you have complaints in your heart, but everything I say and do is for the future of you and me. We came from a poor family together, and in the future you will be able to prosper and be a good person
I’ll give you a hand.”
"Yes, yes, there is someone Liang, hehe." Mr. Liang added something to the side, looking silly and inexplicably funny.
Bai Song waved his hand impatiently: "So, we are in the same boat, right?"
"You can say that, but I am the one at the helm, and you are the passenger on the boat."
"Does that mean if I don't behave well, you will kick me off the boat at any time?"
Chai Guan nodded and drank tea without commenting.
"Okay, no matter what, I still have to write about Mr. Chai today. But, since everyone admits that we are in the same boat, we naturally share the blessings and share the hardships."
With that said, Bai Song walked towards Master Liang.
Chai Guan and Master Liang both frowned and looked at Bai Song.
Bai Song slowly walked up to Master Liang and took a piece of silver from the brocade box.
"What are you doing?" Chai Guan asked warily.
Bai Song pretended not to listen, took out another tablet, and put it into Master Liang's pocket.
"One for me, one for you, Master Chai also gets one..."
"You...you...you are so brave!" Chai Guan stood up immediately and grabbed Bai Song's wrist, "This is official silver!"
"I know it."
"If you take it if you know it, you will risk your life!"
"Don't worry, there are only three of us on the same boat here, take a little, who knows?"
Bai Song smiled and continued to take the silver from the brocade box. As he took it, he said, "This silver came from the home of the medicine merchant Xue He, but Xue He didn't dare to recognize it. After he recognized it, he soon admitted that he had hidden the official silver."
?Since no one dares to recognize it, no one knows how much silver is in this brocade box. Who dares to say that there is not enough silver in this brocade box, then it proves that there is something wrong with him.
Even if the brocade box is delivered to the governor, the governor will not ask any questions. How much does a drug dealer have to do with the governor and the Zheng family? It is probably not even a chess piece. At most, the drug dealer will suffer a loss. Who knows?
care?
Besides, you keep saying that you are on the same boat, but you don’t take advantage of this convenience. How can you make me feel at ease? People have to rely on blood to form an alliance, right? Let’s not be so cliché. Each of us takes some money and treats it as an alliance.
.”
Bai Song said as he stuffed money into the two of them.
The chaiguan felt a little hot to his hands while holding the silver, so he frowned and said, "This is greed!"
"Why not be greedy if we can be greedy? We are not greedy for the people, disaster relief, the army, or the court. What we are greedy for comes from others."
"This is military pay, so why isn't it from the army?"
"Since it is military pay, if all of it is submitted, will it be used as military pay?"
"Master Chai, don't say any more. Bai Song is right, we can use this money! If we don't take it, sooner or later it will be taken away by the superiors."
After that, Master Liang took Bai Songsai's money in one go.
After going back and forth, the three of them each took forty taels and left.
Even if it is traced down in the future and the money is cut out, it will never be found.
Before leaving the county government office, Bai Song gave Mr. Chai another ingot of silver.
Chai Guan was a little afraid of this boy, frowned and asked: "What else do you have planned?"
"Last time, my lord arranged for ten taels of silver to be used as payment. Naturally, the property must be returned to its original owner. We will not take advantage of anyone."
"If you can study hard, I will be satisfied."
"Don't worry, don't worry, read it when you get home. Learn and practice it from time to time. Isn't it nice to have friends from far away? Isn't it like being a gentleman if you don't know someone who doesn't know you? I understand..."
…
In a few days, Bai Song accumulated nearly fifty taels of silver.
The money left in Xiaomang County was enough for the Qu family and my sister to spend a period of time.
Today, the Zheng family is causing trouble again. On the surface, Bai Song seems to be calm, but in his heart, he has lost his patience.
At night, Bai Song called his sister and Sangsang together.
Under the night, Bai Song made a decision.
"I'm going to Jixian, so you should take good care of yourself."
"elder brother……"
"Brother Bai..."
"Okay, I know what you are going to say, but I have made up my mind. I must do this well, otherwise I will not be able to rest at ease."
Bai Song's expression was solemn. The two girls had never seen Bai Song passing by like this.
They all understood it and knew they couldn't stop it.
My sister's eyes were wet and she asked in a low voice: "When will the brother come back?"
Bai Song pointed to the vegetable garden behind: "I will definitely be able to return before the potatoes bear fruit."
Sangsang looked back at the green sprouts in the small vegetable garden, feeling a little annoyed. If she had known this, she would have taken more care of those novel things.
